Students are asked not to take holidays during term time.

Attendance
Parents now have the option to receive a weekly email with their son/daughter’s attendance for the previous week. This is a copy of the email sent to students every Saturday morning. To subscribe to this service please email parentattendance@leggott.ac.uk, preferably from the email account you wish to receive the emails to, clearly stating your name, your son/daughter’s name and the destination email address.
Attendance Information and Bromcom Codes
The BROMCOM system has a set of codes which describe the pattern of attendance/absence for each student.

Contact with College
The Personal Tutor is the key initial contact. All parents should receive a letter from the appropriate personal tutor during the Autumn term, before these arrive please ask your son/daughter who their personal tutor is. In addition, for specialist support the senior tutor may be able to help.
For Safeguarding/Child Protection issues please contact Janice Gibson, Assistant Principal Student Services or Paul FitzPatrick, Senior Tutor.
